5818 SE Lafayette St, Portland, OR 97206

Be prepared to fall in love with this adorable Portland bungalow. The home and yard, both well maintained, are located on a quiet street in the cozy residential neighborhood of Foster-Powell. Upon entering, you will see that the home has a nice balance of original details and thoughtful upgrades. With three bedrooms, one full bathroom, and an updated kitchen layout that opens to the dining area, this home has ample space and great flow. Beautiful original hardwood floors welcome you once you step inside. The living room has a lovely wood-burning fireplace, and several windows offering great light in the afternoon. The dining area feels bright and open, and flows nicely into the remodeled kitchen. There are two bedrooms on the main level, one of which has a door leading to the back yard deck, and the other nicely situated for a dedicated home office. The second floor has the third bedroom with a large, long closet, as well as a landing that makes for a cozy reading room. The home is not only charming, but also very functional. The roof is in great condition, upgraded double-pain windows throughout the home, and the detached garage, with electrical service, has new siding. The water main line, all indoor water lines, sewer line, furnace and heat pump were all recently updated as well. The basement is unfinished, but is bright, dry and very clean. It has a laundry area and utility sink, and is ready for both ample storage and workspace. The deep driveway gives loads of off-street parking. One can park right next to the backdoor to load groceries straight into the kitchen. And, last but not least, is the fully-fenced back yard, which feels very private, and is ideal with its well-cared-for lawn, lovely vegetation, and newer Trek deck. Please note: the neighboring property to the east is owned by the Oregon DEQ, and is used as one of their many weather monitoring stations. [Home Energy Score = 4.
